#215If you are looking for self-hosted desktop streaming with OBS via nginx and RTMP, you might find some insights in my recent blog post: https://bitkeks.eu/blog/2020/03/desktop-video-streaming-serv... The nginx module also supports DASH encoding, which can be delivered by dash.js - I have it in production, but not yet updated the article. Next I'll try setting up SRT.

have you ever thought about getting a PC?
If I was doing Logic Pro X tutorials, or XCode tutorials, this would be a non-option - which are the only kinds of tutorials I personally have enough knowledge and drive to create. PC is a non-option for a chunk of people in dev and media - I, for instance, do iOS dev for a living, and live by Logic Pro X for professional audio work. (I've been using Logic for about 15 years...) The amount of time it would take for m…
From my experience real experience comes from learning concepts not applications.
Someone that knows the ins and outs of Microsoft Word can relatively easy switch to switch to Libreoffice Write.
Or someone that is a good modeler in 3dmax can also become a good modeler in blender.
Buttons in applications change position all the time. UI gets reworked, keyboard shortcuts changes, etc. from each version to the next, but if the concept behind doing certain stuff is learned, it doesn't really matter which software product is used.
The only time when stuff is really hard, if you encounter a concept you haven't worked with before and have to change the way you think radically.

#218OBS is commonly used for video game streaming, but it's a great tool for any scenario where you need to take live audio and video from different sources and display them at the same time or transition between them. I've been using it to make a corny music interview show with my local musician friends during the coronavirus shelter in place. Whereas a lot of my fellow musicians are streaming from their phone, I'm able…
The B in OBS hints at streaming, but it's also fantastic for purely recording. It's honestly surprising how lacking that space was before OBS. I remember using FRAPS/Taksi a bit, and stuff like Camtasia, but there were all pretty awful to be honesty and definitely not free or open source.

OBS is amazing and I love everything about it. Thanks for maintaining it. Are there any paid developers working on it? Does the project make money?

I'm doing something similar on Linux, although a bit more complicated. I'm using v4l2loopback [0] to create a dummy video device, ffmpeg to create a stream endpoint that streams into the dummy video device, then setting up OBS to stream to localhost. It is actually really nice to have the capability to fully control what is going in to the video input. I haven't run into a need to also change the audio input yet but…
Could you detail on how you are creating the ffmpeg streaming endpoint? That would be very heplful!
